On Apple:

"We have always been shameless about stealing great ideas."
—PBS Documentary, Triumph of the Nerds, 1996

"It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them."
—BusinessWeek, 1998

"If I were running Apple, I would milk the Macintosh for all it's worth — and get busy on the next great thing. The PC wars are over. Done. Microsoft won a long time ago."
—Fortune, 1996

"The products suck! There's no sex in them anymore!"
—BusinessWeek, 1997

"Nobody has tried to swallow us since I've been here. I think they are afraid how we would taste."
—Shareholder meeting, 1998

"Pretty much, Apple and Dell are the only ones in this industry making money. They make it by being Wal-Mart. We make it by innovation."

Apple's market share is bigger than BMW's or Mercedes's or Porsche's in the automotive market. What's wrong with being BMW or Mercedes?
